Magnetic- and specific-heat measurements are reported on the (U1-xThx)(2)Pt
-2 In solid solutions for 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0
.10 where the U atoms are randomly replaced by Th. The observed enhanced Pa
uli paramagnetism and the non-Fermi-liquid behaviour for T > 1.7 K in the s
ubstituted samples up to 10% Th showed that the magnetic behaviour is uncha
nged in all this composition range. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All righ
